What a treat!  My family can’t get enough homemade pizza.  The pizza dough is made from scratch.  I make the pizza sauce out of tomatoes I canned from our garden.  The cheese is homemade goat milk mozzerella and the meat is home processed venison.  You can’t get more from scratch than that!

I thought I would share my recipe :-)

Pizza Dough

1 2/3 c. water

2 Tbsp olive oil

2 Tbsp sugar or honey or agave

2 Tbsp dry milk

1 tsp. salt

2 1/2 c. all purpose flour

2 c. whole wheat flour

2 tsp. yeast

Prepare dough by hand or bread machine. This recipe make 2 pizza crusts.

Pizza Sauce

1 qt. canned tomatoes

1 Tbsp. dried oregano

2 tsp. basil

2 cloves garlic

Simmer all the above ingredients for a couple hours.

2 lb. Goat Milk Mozzerella Cheese (any kind of mozzerella would work)

2 lb. Ground Venison (any ground burger would work)

1 Onion

2 c. Chopped spinach

    That looks great! We were supposed to have soaked wheat pizza tonight,, but I forgot to soak the wheat last night. I was going to do burgers instead, but now you may have just talked me into doing white dough ;) I think I’ll do venison sausage on top too.
